Default Virus alert-UPDATE

As Stig Arne Bye mentioned it is the W32/swen@mm virus.

It is nastier (for us) than the run of the mill worm.
In addition to harvesting address books, it has an NNTP function to
harvest addy's from any newsgroup visited by the infectee.
If you've posted *anywhere*, with a valid addy, you could be targeted.

For more info:

Update your AV software, folks, and munge your email addy.
If we want to yell at you that bad, we'll figure it out. )

....carry on. )
